Chapter 51
Cedric's POV
I hated December.
Ever since she left, I hated December because it was just a reminder of everything that happened. When she left me, I didn't have the life to celebrate my birthday or any celebrations in my life because I feel that no matter how I will lie myself pretending to be happy in front of my friends but the end of the day I will still lay in bed alone without her by my side.
"Cedric, what happened? since when did you learn to get drunk?" mom asked me when I got home drunk again, it's a week straight that I keep on going home drunk.
"Mom, I want to go to my room," I almost fell on the floor when I tried to walk but luckily, Yaya and Mom catch me.
"Jusko Cedric! hindi na kita kayang ang bigat mo na!" Yaya was worried.
"Why did you even drink when you have low alcohol tolerance? what if you got into an accident? what are you thinking?!"
I sat on the floor and then my tears starts to roll down from my eyes because I just remembered the pain of seeing her leaving me that night. I always remember when she walks away and night always reminds me of her walking away from me.
"Cedric, what happened? why are you always like this? this is a week straight that you're drunk every night! what happened?" mom asked while she was holding my shoulders for me to face her.
"Tell me, what happened?"
I refused to tell her the truth because I know that she will not do anything to give me what I want. It's better not to say it.
I just forced myself to stand up and walked on the way to the elevator to go to my room for me to fall asleep and rest myself from this pain I have right now. I saw her crying that night after she talk to her.
I wonder what she said to her that night that made Veronica cry. She doesn't cry unless it's hurting her so much.
"Cedric, please, talk to me," she pulled me from the elevator and made me sit down on the sofa in the living room.
I refused to talk to her and my dad after that night that Veronica left me. I hate everyone in this house. I hate my dad so much for hurting both of us.
"S-she broke up me, she left me, mom. She left me," I cried in front of her because this is the only I know that I can let this pain out of me.
"Anak, you should not cry over that kind of girl. You can still find another girl who's better than her," I just can't believe what she just said right now.
"How could you say that?! you said that you like her! why are you saying that?!" I lashed out to her.
"I used to like her for you not until I knew that she's the daughter of your dad's mistress and she just did the right thing," so she already knew about that. She already knows the truth that's why she's saying that now.
But how can she be so heartless? it's not her fault to be the daughter of dad's mistress! it's not her fault! Veronica is right, this is too complicated to handle because our parents will not allow us to be together anymore.
She's right, everything she said that night is so damn right. But still, she should've stayed. I need her, we need each other at this time. I know my mom will not allow it and she will do everything to separate her.
I love her so much that even she left me, I can't hate her because my love is higher than the pain she caused me. I still love her so much that I didn't even think of hating her.
"You're young, Cedric. You will experience a lot of things that will make you realize that you can still find a better woman than her, I know what kind of person she is! I know her past and what kind of girl she is in the past! How can you love that kind of woman, Cedric? there is a lot of women who are decent, formal, and sophisticated! why don't you just move on?" there were a lot of women out there but I only want her, no one else and these are not the words that I want to hear from her.
